Audio player loading… While excitement grows for the iPhone 14 , we can say pretty confidently that Apple hasn't started pre-orders for the thing yet. But that doesn't mean excited fans can't already put their money where their mouth is... if they've got enough of said money. Custom iPhone maker Caviar has unveiled its iPhone 14 collection (opens in new tab) , with 13 different exorbitantly expensive spins on Apple's upcoming smartphone. They range from the $9,500 Champagne Rose model you can see above, with stingray leather and titanium, up to a $22,620 Gold Champagne Crystal model which includes loads of gold jewelry as well as nine diamonds. Most of these devices are limited-run ones, with only 99 or so models being made. You can choose whether to get an iPhone 14 Pro or Pro Max version - the latter bumps the price up by even more. It's worth pointing out that the iPhones shown in these pictures probably aren't accurate to what the iPhone 14 will look like … [Read more...] about You can already pre-order an iPhone 14 – if you’ve got a spare $10,000

Allergy vs intolerance: What’s the difference?
If you have an unpleasant reaction every time you eat a certain food, you may wonder whether you have some form of a food sensitivity. But what’s the difference between an allergy vs an intolerance, and how can you identify which one you might be suffering with? It’s easy to get confused, as these conditions present themselves in similar ways. Food allergies and food intolerances may appear in response to the same dietary triggers, and they both produce similar symptoms, such as stomach cramps, diarrhea and skin rashes. But the underlying mechanisms behind these conditions couldn’t be more different, and getting the right diagnosis is essential if you want to receive the right treatment. In this article, we’ll answer all of your important questions about food allergies vs intolerances, from causes through to treatments. What is a food allergy? According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (opens in new tab) , a food allergy is a chronic … [Read more...] about Allergy vs intolerance: What’s the difference?
Apps and advertisers are coming for your lock screen, and it’s going to be exhausting
Your phone’s lock screen is the hottest new real estate in tech. Apple made the iPhone’s lock screen a centerpiece of iOS 16 , giving users more control over how theirs looks and works. But while Apple talked about pretty clock fonts and nifty color-matched wallpapers, it also showed off a world in which your lock screen is more than just a security measure: it’s becoming another surface on which companies can put information, apps, and even ads. Apple’s far from the only company thinking about this, too. TechCrunch reports that Glance , a lock screen content company (which apparently is a thing!) is already in talks with US carriers and plans to launch on some Android phones in the US in the next two months. The competition for your eyeballs and attention has already come out of apps and onto your home screen, through widgets and notifications. Now it looks like it’s headed one step further: onto the first thing you see when you turn on your phone, before you even pick it up … [Read more...] about Apps and advertisers are coming for your lock screen, and it’s going to be exhausting
There’s a better way to bypass Windows 11 install restrictions
Windows 11 comes with more restrictive install requirements when compared to its predecessor, including restrictions on older processors as well as requiring an internet connection and Microsoft account. Luckily, there are workarounds that allow for upgrades to Windows 11 on unsupported CPUs , and the company isn’t blocking those circumventions . But, if you’re looking to do a clean Windows 11 install and configure the system with just a local account, you can now do that easily with a tool called Rufus. The app has been long used by IT departments to quickly create bootable Windows installers. The latest beta release , as reported by Ars Technica , now has the ability to remove the requirement of an online Microsoft account, alongside other circumventions. It can bypass computers that lack TPM 2.0 (including Intel Macs), computers that have less than 4GB of RAM or 64GB of storage, and you can also automatically disable data collection. You’ll still need to keep your … [Read more...] about There’s a better way to bypass Windows 11 install restrictions
I drove the new 2017 Ford Mustang and couldn’t even start the engine
Audio player loading… I’ve made a massive mistake. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I’m lost in the middle of the countryside with a dead car that costs far more than my annual salary and I have no way of getting in contact with anyone. OK - let’s rewind a bit. I’ve never driven a car as a journalist (well, I have... but the two were unrelated. I can drive and I am a journalist... that’s not important though). But I came to the middle of an English forest to drive the new Ford Mustang 5.0 V8 GT, a 5-litre beast of a car that had me not sleeping the night before, such was my excitement. Usually the most-excellent John McCann writes these TechRadar Drives columns , looking at the hulking great behemoths of cars from a technology angle, the lucky beggar getting to try out hugely expensive new cars and pass judgement on them. But I’ve barely driven a car that’s worth a fifth of this Mustang I’m sat in (the convertible V8 I had starts at £41,595), and … [Read more...] about I drove the new 2017 Ford Mustang and couldn’t even start the engine
US selects four encryption algorithms to protect against future quantum attacks
Audio player loading… The US government has chosen four new encryption (opens in new tab) algorithms that should be able to protect secret digital communications from being decrypted by immensely powerful quantum computers. There is fear in the wider cybersecurity community that the current encryption standards, protecting much of today’s digital communications across both private and public sector endpoints (opens in new tab) , will be rendered useless once quantum computers take off. The four encryption algorithms will become part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology's (NIST) post-quantum cryptographic standard, the organization said in its announcement, adding that the standard should be finalized in “about two years”. Post-quantum cryptography “Today’s announcement is an important milestone in securing our sensitive data against the possibility of future cyberattacks from quantum computers,” said Secretary of Commerce Gina M. … [Read more...] about US selects four encryption algorithms to protect against future quantum attacks

Best microwaves for 2022
Microwaves have come a long way since the first commercial model was released in 1947. If you're not familiar with this essential appliance's origin, here's a quick rundown: While working on magnetron production for the military in World War II, Percy Spencer, a Raytheon employee and physicist, discovered that a candy bar in his pocket had melted . Spencer quickly filed a patent for an invention based on the strange accident, and the microwave oven was born. Today, the best microwaves save valuable time in food prep when compared to a conventional oven. They are used to warm up leftovers, make popcorn, melt chocolate and steam veggies, among many, many other possibilities.
